    Summary

    Mike joins a LARP for the first time and keeps his helmet on because being a paladin is easier than being himself. After one mistake, he’s introduced to the “paladin doubt” mechanic and keeps ending up confessing to the same calm cleric in purple robes.

    Then Max drags him to a coffee shop, and Mike realizes the barista smiling at him is the same cleric who’s been hearing his confessions every weekend.

    From there, things get complicated. Mike knows exactly who Will is but doesn't tell him. Will develops a crush on the quiet, devout paladin who kneels for penance and never takes his helmet off.

    Summary

    Mike isn’t Will’s Tammy. He’s not an idea, not something Will loved from a distance just to understand himself and then leave behind.

    He’s Will’s Mike. The one he came back to, the one he stayed with, the one he trusts with something fragile and enormous.

    And the understanding settles gently but surely into Mike’s bones: this is who he wants to be. For Will. With Will.

     

    Or, Mike confesses late. But maybe not too late.

    Summary

    Will’s latest enchantment is meant to keep them close, even when duty pulls them apart. But what starts as a gift meant to ease distance becomes something far more immediate.

    Summary

    He slid his free hand, sticky with fruit blood, up the column of Will’s neck. He gripped it. It was tighter than a friend should grip. It was possessive. He wrapped his fingers around Will’s throat, his thumb pressing into the pulse point.

     

    The eye contact was insane. It was a physical tether.

     

    "You want…" Mike’s voice was a wreck. A rasp. "… a strawberry?"

     

    The tension in the room was high enough to shatter glass. And then, Will let out a wet, breathless chuckle.

     

    "You’re an idiot," Will breathed.

    The dream always starts the same way: with the weight of steel and the rustle of silk. In his sleep, Mike is a Paladin and Will is his light. In reality, Mike is an almost divorced academic from Indiana and Will is a cynical artist with wine stains on his chin and a cigarette between his lips. A weekend in the city was supposed to be a goodbye to the past. Instead, it becomes a messy, strawberry-sweet surrender to a hunger that seven years couldn't starve.

    Summary

    Both of their bodies shake as they catch their breath. Will’s still hard, and his sweat is starting to dry uncomfortably on his skin, but all he can focus on is Mike.

    It’s times like these he’s reminded how lucky he is to have Mike in this way. To see this side of him, this side that still feels too new and too intimate and too overwhelming all at once. Sometimes, he thinks he may be bitter. Resentful of his lot in life, being so painfully in love with someone who will so obviously never feel the same way. On his bad days, he even thinks he might resent Mike.

    Like this, though, he knows that could never be true. Not really. Sure, it hurts, only ever having Mike halfway, knowing his body but never his soul. Yes, it’s going to kill him when Mike inevitably finds someone new and runs off into the sunset, leaving him in the dust again.

    But it’s Mike. He'll take whatever he can get.

    When he and Mike end up in bed together after graduation, they fall into something dangerously easy. Or, at least, it would be, if it weren't the most painful thing Will's ever done.
